Which Should You Buy?
This early 00s fruity-woody scent is a divisive one. Some find the combination of dark fruits and warm amber intoxicating, while others find it cloyingly sweet and even nauseating. Definitely test before you commit, if you can find it.
Prepare for a full-on fruit cocktail, because Escada's Ocean Lounge is a polarising blast of sweet, syrupy strawberry. Some call it an artificial sugar bomb, others a joyful, mood-boosting summer essential. It's either your nostalgic dream or a headache waiting to happen.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.
Occasions
While some found it suitable for the office with light application, the strong fruity and sweet accords, coupled with its potential for being overpowering, make it better suited for dates or casual wear. It's too heavy for sport and a bit too playful for most formal events.
Seasons
A summer scent - airy and clear, designed for hot weather.
Occasions
This is a casual, youthful scent, best suited for relaxed, warm-weather activities. Its intensely sweet and fruity profile, coupled with average longevity and sillage, makes it less ideal for formal settings or professional office environments, where it could be overpowering.
Similarity Breakdown
Both share Fruity, Sweet accords and Plum, Amber notes
